This is the first boss you will meet in Final Fantasy III, he is pretty easy, just

use Tek Missle with Terra on it, so you can defeat him easier.

Blitz then press <- -> <- and A, Sabin will execute his Pummel attack and automatically
kill Vargas.

This is a sea boss, he is pretty easy, have Banon heal the party everytime, while Edge uses
Autocross Bow. Have Sabin use his Pummel attack on it. You can have Terra attack or use Fire
on him, eventually he will die, and the party will break appart.

way until he is defeated.
